It supposedly helps them analyze smells better.

Seem a few geldings do that when a weird smell catches their noses. Like when another horse has just had a bath & still smells like products.

He's lifting his top lip up to his nose so he can smell better.

He is smiling, because he loves you :)
Nah, just kidding. Its a way to help smell, have you ever given your horse a peppermint, or they've smelt something strong? That is normally when they do it.
